Is it nonsense? They got rid of the paid tier that only got rid of ads at the start of this ad blocking war. And their tactics have been escalating more and more along with the amount of ads shown. Do you honestly think they will just stop at some point and be satisfied? Seems naive to ignore the trends from all other companies and assume youtube won’t follow suit given the choice.
I can, however, tell you that if you pay youtube for premium, you won’t get ads this month.
It’ll get “worse” with time, because youtube doesn’t have an expiration date. But that’s the price of accumulating information. And people are going to decide wether it’s worth paying for.
Enshitification is when the product gets worse with time and user gains nothing (or loses).
“more ads” is basically covering “increased cost” due to increasing content, and content quality.
